SCS/SB 912 - This act allows resorts located in Miller, Morgan and Camden counties to apply for a special permit from the Supervisor of Liquor Control to remain open and sell liquor by the drink until 3:00 a.m. each day of the week and to open at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday.

The applicant must have had gross sales of $100,000 or more in the preceding year and must be a resort. A resort is defined as "any establishment having at least seventy-five rooms for the overnight accommodation of transient guests, having at least three thousand square feet of meeting space and having a restaurant located on the premises".

Any resort holding a special permit must ensure that only overnight guests of the resort are sold liquor between 1:30 a.m. and 3:00 a.m.

This act is similar to SB 311 (2001).
